Synopsis

In the original short film, a young man dressed in a green wizard costume runs across America at super speed, resembling the superhero The Flash. During his journey, he gives a pretty girl a quick ride to another city and hands out golden stars to other women who wish to travel as well. He later slips on a banana peel and comically crashes into a film set, which he subsequently brings to life through magical means.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
